Thank you Moz for the spectacular event full of knowledge and learning!

It was my first MozCon so thank you for letting me meet all the amazing people I only knew virtually. Obviously, I have not been to any other conferences, but I can definitely say that MozCon was not a typical search marketing conference.

I write this post to say thank you to all the people who not only made me attend the event, but also made it a wonderful moment of my life.

So, I will go one by one here

Note: Before everyone else, the US embassy people who issued me the VISA without a problem

It’s been a while that I haven’t update SEtalks.com but this is because work is keeping me busy all day long and weekends from the past few weeks were very engaged with documentation and packing to attend the MozCon 2015.

Thank you Moz Team for the Free MozCon ticket!

So, now that I am all ready and prepared to fly in the next couple of days to US I thought to write this post. If you are attending MozCon 2015, do follow me on twitter @mmhemani and drop me a message I would love to meet you in person.

Yoda was not only a grand master of the Jedi Order but it was an amazing character and if you personally ask me I would recommend Yoda to anyone with the entrepreneurial mindset. One of the many reasons to quote him is because his quotes are very simple yet very inspirational and can possibly change the life of many.

In this post, I thought why not discuss some of the amazing quotes by Yoda and how these quotes can help one becoming a better leader in his organization instead of being a boss or a manger.

The moment you are ready with a conversion friendly website, the next thing you need is a better visibility in search engines for your targeted key phrases. As a startup owner you are already dealing with lots of different stuff and SEO on the other hand is a time taking job, which is why many startup owners find it smart to outsource this job to agencies to make their lives a bit easier.

There are tons and tons of companies offering SEO solutions but unfortunately there are very few companies who can provide the kind of results you require for your business using white hat tactics. Companies sale SEO services in different ways, some people offer full service SEO, other emphasize more on link building, few focus on content marketing and more.

The game of SEO has changed drastically right after the first Panda update and there were very few professionals who actually understood how SEO and digital marketing works in the post penguin and panda world.

Today, things are different and this SEO service providing niche is much more crowded space, where businesses have multiple choices regarding which vendor to choose for their digital marketing campaigns.

In order to attract targeted audience to your website, having a blog is not enough and you need more than just a blog or service pages on your website.

Although, my personal blog isn’t perfect as a service provider’s website but as far as my research goes if you want your website to be an ideal choice for a business who is looking for SEO/Digital Marketing services here are the 6 things you should have in your website.

What is the ultimate trump card for gaining rankings in search engines? No matter how loud you shout content marketing or social media, it’s still link building!

It is tedious, tricky, confusing and frustrating, but at the end of the day it is an essential investment for any business to flourish.

Link Building is time consuming, especially when you are trying to hit high authority domains like CNN, BCC, Forbes and Entrepreneur. But in this post I am going to share some link building strategies that will help you build good links… fast!

Many noteworthy people and companies have pages dedicated to them on Wikipedia. Inevitably, there will be times when the content of these pages is out of date, incomplete, or just plain wrong. When this happens, it can be tempting for companies or even individuals to think they can just jump onto Wikipedia and fix things themselves. After all, anyone can edit Wikipedia, and nobody knows more about their company or themselves than they do. But editing a page on oneself or one’s company carries risks.

I’ve been around in the SEO industry for years. I had joined this industry as an article submitter many years back when mass article writing and directory submissions were all it took to get better rankings in Google SERPs for desired key phrases. I also witnessed the first ever panda update and how things changed drastically after that.

I worked under different namaes; some taught me how not to do SEO while others gave me a better insight of what digital marketing was all about and how SEO should be done the ‘right way!’ Now after all these years, working under different companies and on different positions, I am confident that my advice in this article will help new SEO officers in finding better jobs that can possibly change their life.

This is one of those times of the year when I am packed with so many things professionally and personally, and so it got a bit difficult for me to come up with a detailed and actionable blog post for my readers lately. There are lots of ideas I have with me that I will share later down the line but today I am sharing the problem that my link building team was facing while we were working on our latest projects.

Broken Link Building

One of the major problems they were facing with was not getting enough positive responses. In some campaigns they were getting a response rate of less than 2% which in my opinion is much lower than the market ratio.

One of the major reasons of a low response rate was because they were using a wrong or at least a limited approach towards broken link building.

We are in the Interview week, and this is the 3rd interview of the series! The celebrity I have today is my personal favorite and this is may be because he is not only a great professional but his name alone is one hell of a motivation to me and many others in the industry.

He starts his career in 2003 as a SEO specialist and within few years he becomes the CEO and founder of a renowned SEO and digital marketing agency called Single Grain. He was the CEO for more or less around 9 years before he started working as a VP of marketing at “When I Work”.

Thank you Sujan for taking time and answering my questions! I will try not to bore you by asking the same questions rather I would prefer asking technical question that will enhance the knowledge of me and my audience.
